@stigaviation That’s absolutely fascinating. Typical of the level of complexity even in ancillary systems.

Tail skid system explanation by Stig Aviation ✈️ Believe it or not … you’ll find this under ATA 32 .. It’s a very rudimentary and simple system, designed to simply protect the aircraft. Take for example the 737, it’s more of a visual inspection, the more advanced aircraft have electrical signals that will send information to the flight deck that a tail strike has occurred. Let’s take for example the 777, some of them have a tail skid, but all of them have a tail strike sensor. To simply put it’s basically two little wires encased inside of a fin on the belly of the tail. If a tailstrike occurs, the fin Will break and open a circuit, sending this information to the flight deck. Overall tail strike incidents are very rare, because pilots train over and over to perfect their flying. That being said you also have aircraft computer systems to assist. But there are times where bad weather conditions will cause this occurrence, but once again the airplane can handle it. Not an ad
